Goose Green
It’s been a fruitful few
days at Goose Green, Mike Symes fished Tench Pond on Friday evening, fishing
with small cubes of luncheon meat presented under a small waggler, Mike, fishing
close to nearside features caught a steady succession of Tench to a couple of
pounds in weight, just as Mike was thinking of packing up his float slid away,
Mike struck in to the fish only to see his rod take on a healthy curve and line
started to strip off his reel, after a spirited battle the fish was netted, the
culprit a 7-8-0 Mirror Carp in scale perfect
condition.
A few people were to
found at Goose on Saturday, and certainly less than in previous weeks, perhaps
it had something to do with the work party that was taking place?, although no
details were recorded the few people who did fish were witnessed to catch Carp,
Bream, Roach &
Rudd.
Sunday saw a plethora of
people on the Bank, Anthony Tester fished Lake two with the waggler, using
pellet on the hook Anthony caught Bream, Skimmers and small Carp for a net of
fish that tipped the scales at well over 15-0-0, also on the lake was Gavin
Tester, Gavin, fishing the long pole towards the island hooked but unfortunately
lost a few larger Carp, having been beaten by the bigger fish, Gavin
concentrated on his short line and caught small Skimmers, Carp, Roach & Rudd
for a net of fish that went over 10-0-0.
Adam Tester was also to
be found on Lake 2 (Yes it was a real family outing), Adam fishing the short
pole with a shallow rig was targeting the small Carp that abide in Lake 2,
fishing with Pellet on the hook, Adam started to put together a steady string of
the small, but perfectly formed Carp, he also included Skimmers, Roach, Rudd
& Bream in his haul that went to just under 15-0-0, fishing the adjacent peg
to Adam was Goose Green stalwart Trevor Mordle, Trevor fishing the short pole
with maggot on the hook, put together a highly respectable net of Bream, large
Skimmers, Small Carp, Crucians plus Roach &
Rudd.
Over on Lake 3, Shaun
& Chris Groves were to be found fully enjoying themselves fishing close in
to bank side cover with poles for some of the lakes larger residents, the duo
certainly had the best pegs on the fishery as they could do no wrong, catching
Carp to 7-0-0, Bream to 3-8-0 , plus skimmers and some silvers, in fact every
time you looked round the elastic was stretching out again, also on Lake 3 was
Dudley Chandler, Dudley fishing the pole, caught carp to 6-0-0, plus Tench,
Bream & skimmers for a net estimated by the man himself to be approx
25-0-0.
